NASDSE’s Social Media Campaign will kick off the Week of June 1st
During NASDSE’s weeklong Social Media Campaign, the education community will blanket Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Twitter with messages on the importance of special education distance learning—especially now due to the Coronavirus pandemic. The theme is #ExpandingTheClassroom.
We’re hoping the education and advocacy communities, instructional support personnel, and parents will participate in this campaign.
In keeping with our goal of cultivating a sense of community and support, #NASDSE has launched #ExpandingtheClassroom, a #socialmedia campaign highlighting the amazing work the education community and parents are doing to make sure all students continue to receive their education—despite the pandemic.
You can help us bring awareness to this awesome campaign by sharing our content as well as your own and encouraging your fans and followers to share your stories across the social stratosphere. The campaign will culminate with a Twitter chat discussion Friday, June 5th at 7 p.m. EST, with participants using the #ExpandingTheClassroom hashtag to share the good news, creative strategies, and tips for helping students excel during this unprecedented time. They’ll also be asked to share lessons learned and the marvelous things they’ve discovered in our new normal.
Each day, we’ll share a new blog post highlighting what is taking place across the country by those who educate students and advocate for their well-being. Blog posts will include:
- Best practices and creative strategies when #ExpandingTheClassroom
- Using technology when #ExpandingTheClassroom
- Helping your students excel while #ExpandingTheClassroom
- Inspirational or encouraging messages used while #ExpandingTheClassroom
- Final blog posts on lessons learned (drawn from the Twitter chat discussion)
In addition to images stamped with the #ExpandingTheClassroom hashtag; feel free to share facts and figures on distance learning, and an appeal for the education community, instructional support personnel, and parents to participate in our Twitter chat discussion by offering first-hand accounts of how they’re helping students continue to learn.
